A couple of us Peugeot 308 owners went for a dyno session earlier today, just for fun really. wink.gif

That's not true, actually we are more interested in finding out whether a simple plug and play tuning box can make a difference in the car's performance. laugh.gif Since not a lot of solid information is available, let alone dyno charts. We all thought this could be fun and why not.

The tuning box we used is one from Germany that cost almost RM$1,000 less than the "P" brand tuning box, it is the same type of plug and play digital tuning box. The runs were done on a stock Peugeot 308 with no other modifications and here are the results,


Horsepower (at engine):



Torque (at engine):



We will try and do another run with the same car but this time with a "P" brand tuning box soon. It will be interesting to see if a higher price mean higher performance gains.

On a side note, the software Dynolicious is pretty accurate. The readings from this US$12.99 app is not that much different from what we get from a real dynometer. If you have an iPhone or iPad, it is worth checking out this app.

If anyone remotely associated with Nasim is reading, the runs were done on a 3rd party's car not mine. Don't even try and get any funny ideas regarding my car's warranty. laugh.gif

This is interesting, a tuning box that cost less than the "P" i think it a good buy, with 30 bhp gain it pretty good.
i wonder what brand is it........?? anyway with the bhp gain, will our transmission temperature heat up much more faster? do we need to add on a transmission cooler?

It works on Peugeot 308, 3008, 508, 5008 and RCZ, as long as it has a Prince THP engine.

No turbo, no magic. sad.gif
